The tax levy by-law says the Town levies separate rates on its urban area (Georgetown, Acton and the hamlets of Norval, Stewarttown and Glen Williams) and its rural area, so a rural bill is worked out on different rates. Halton Region says its waste costs apply to urban residents, with rural residents charged only for the rural services they receive.
Halton Region breaks down its 2026 cost per $100,000 of assessment for Halton Hills: road operations $36.93, waste management $33.42, public health and paramedics $31.87, housing $27.92, services for seniors $18.31, other services $18.19, conservation authorities and heritage $8.22, and smaller amounts for property assessment, children's services, development, employment and social services and small business.

Payment must reach the Town by the due date. Unpaid balances are charged 1.25 per cent on the first day of each month after the due date, and a returned payment costs $45. Owners are responsible for getting their bill even if it does not arrive.
Under the 2026 tax levy by-law, any unpaid part of an instalment is charged a penalty of 1.25 per cent of the unpaid amount, added on the first day of each calendar month the default continues. If an instalment is missed, the instalments after it become payable at once. Partial payments go first to the oldest penalties and taxes, and only then to the current year.
Most owners pay through their bank, by online or telephone banking, at an ATM or at a branch; allow at least three business days for online or telephone payments. You can also pay by cheque, use the third-party service Plastiq to pay by credit card (it charges its own fees), or have your mortgage company collect and remit the tax for you.
Yes. The Town offers three pre-authorized plans, with withdrawals on the last business banking day of the month: a monthly plan of ten payments from January to October, an instalment plan that takes each payment on the due date, and an arrears plan for owners paying down a past-due balance over 12 months. Sign up, change or cancel through the property tax portal, or send the application form with a void cheque to the Town's Corporate Services.
The Treasurer can remove you from a plan if two instalments in one tax year are not honoured by your bank.

The Town's Seniors Tax Grant Program offers a $500 grant to owners aged 65 or older who receive the Guaranteed Income Supplement and have owned and lived in their Halton Hills home for at least a year. Separately, Halton Region runs an Older Adults Property Tax Deferral Program for eligible older homeowners on a fixed income.
The Town's Farm Deferral Program lets owners of land classed as farmland put off their taxes and pay them later in a single instalment, usually in the fall, to ease cash flow through the planting and growing seasons.
The 2026 tax levy by-law makes final taxes on land classed as farmland payable on 29 September 2026.
